the purpose of lollipoping

[GypsyBush]

i was looking at your sig link get a harvest every 2 weeks... this requires a strain that's completely done flowering in 6-8 weeks correct?

Uh... you can do anything...

You could do a 6 week strain... but I have never seen one...

You could do like me and just fill the spots and pull them when they are done, regardless of weeks... I don't care to keep an exact schedule... I hate clocks...

Not everyone has to move when "Simon says" in my world...

or you could do every 3 weeks with a 9 week strain...

or... every two weeks 5 trays 10 week strains...

or 4 trays 3weeks 12 week strains...

Uh dude.. it's basic math....

sorry for tellin tales outside of the school house.. but yeah 8 weeks ideally but 6/7 will work although you would need to adjust your set up accordingly..6/7 week strains generally yield less so might not be a good thing to give up mass when your doing this kind of grow..
Also gypsy: good point on the drippers.. i use 4x4 flood tables but with drippers to the top of 3 gallon buckets ... if i went to a SOG and got 1 gallon pots and had to move 20+ a week the drippers would be a pain in the ass.. ebb and flow seem the way to go....
gypsy how long do you flush.. 2 weeks??

I say I like to move mine... but I mostly just turn the pots.... all my trays are on one res.. no need to shuffle pots every so often... my plants usually stay in the same spot... just gets turned once in a while...

No drippers needed... go ebb flow and you will not look back...

And since I try to not over fertilize (with some success) and my cure takes away ALL harshness... I DO NOT FLUSH....

The buds put on most of their weight during those last two weeks...I refuse to starve them at such a critical time...

My buds taste awesome and all my friends love them... smooth hitting, stony as fuck...

No flush.. not for this gypsy....

weird.. so you dont move 4 tables of 40 adding 20 every 2 weeks with each table recieving different nutrient amounts.. i could never bring myself to smoke 1500+ ppm induced buds.. but im sure i have unknowingly thousands of times..
top fed drippers systems create massive growth rates.. i dont think ill be able to part..
NFT in thick PVC looks like a good option.. been thinking about albfuckt all day..im still not sure

 

[GypsyBush]

weird..

I know... I have been hearing that since I was born...

so you dont move 4 tables of 40 adding 20 every 2 weeks with each table recieving different nutrient amounts..

Nope .. and I believe Al was too lazy to set it up too... last I know he was also running one tank....

i could never bring myself to smoke 1500+ ppm induced buds..

Why? do PPM cause cancer or something ?!?!?!

but im sure i have unknowingly thousands of times..

I am sure we all have... but where are you getting this info that 15000 PPM is bad for smoking?

My curing takes away any harshness... all I get left with is sweet dank...

top fed drippers systems create massive growth rates.. i dont think ill be able to part..

Uh.. don't then.. what can I say?

Ebb Flow is the lazy stoner's friend... are you a lazy stoner?

NFT in thick PVC looks like a good option..

If you really don't know what to do and you want to play with PVC...

Take a looky here....lol...

Well, the man has a recipe that anyone can follow... if you want his results... do what he does...

It's that easy....

Best of Luck...

 

[doniawon]

i do think that the causes cancer.. but im fuckin weird too..
i think you just sold me.. just looks too damn easy and yes im a lazy soner .. matter of fact i have 32 plants going and i think i check my room once a week.. that took a long time to get that way but.. grow rooms i think for anyone are ever evolving.. due to a hunger for knowledge.. trial and error style..

thats good info

 

[doniawon]

yesssssssssss my computer has been sick for ever and i have pics of my last grow.. had em like two weeks now.. anyway im going now to get it fixed and ill finally have pics .. exciting day i tell you .. i can finally put shit into perspective

OK, I'm a plumber, and I will tell you, that unless he knows someone who gives away plastic pipe or he stole all of that, then that set up was HELLA BANK! Those fittings alone can be $65 each! Not to mention all of the pipe it's self!

Not cheap I agree... but the first harvest alone will more than pay for the pipe and a whole lot else...

The biggest bonus to the Al B Fuct's system is the no-veg clones. Packed tight. The only reason to NOT do this style of op is if you are in a medi state and only have 1 scrip to grow for. Then SCROG would be best, at least in a limited grow space like mine. If you are a provider then this is the way to go. It will outperform all other methods over time.

Gypsy, we really need a good nickname for this system, explaining it allot. lol

Nah, I dont give a damn how much he harvest that first one. He will be breakin even. Come his 2nd grow, he shud be in the black (I am takin into account the expenses of his second grow in this, as well. Ya arent in the black until yer last grow pays fer the next. So, he cant be until the 2nd!)

 

[GypsyBush]

what about the 5th...????

If you include the costs of that one.. it will take him at least 5....

I am talking about buying trays, pumps, wood for the stands... stuff like that...

If you spend 120 bucks on a 4x4 tray and you fill it... the harvest will pay for the tray and leave you some change...

that is what I am saying...

I feel ya, brah! It ALL depends on how much yer average yield is and how often!

we were talking about Heaths flooded tube vertical.

I just threw in the 4x4 tray as an example because I know how much they cost...

But we were talking about this much pipe and this many plants...

I think he will do all right.. as will anyone that does the same he does...

That is the great thing about hydro... there is no mystery... it's like a cake recipe...

follow it and you end up with a cake...

I still think he can pay for the pipe and then some... first harvest...

Here are some of his pictures...

...at week 3 of 12/12, everything is running smoothly...

 

[Where in the hell am I?]

Yeah, I know what we were talkin about, that where all that money was in the plastic pipe

I think he will pay for the pipe, light, electric bill and anything else he has invested in this grow... first harvest...

86 plants at a minimum 1/2 oz each is ... 2.6 pounds minimum...

and he is an experienced grower... he could get way more than that...

I am a newb and my lollipops are coming out 1/2 to 3/4 oz each... so...

Yeah... he's taking some change to the bank after paying for his supplies...

 

[gotot]

that grow is so dope it makes me want to shit myself!!!! i'm in love with that setup

Love yer new avatar, BTW, brah!

Love yer new avatar, BTW, brah!

Thanks...!

I am trying to spread the Fuct word around... you know Al's threads right???

 

[Where in the hell am I?]

Of course, wish I could do it like that!
